We prove several evaluations of determinants of matrices, the entries of which are given by the recurrence ai,j=ai-1,j+ai,j-1, or variations thereof. These evaluations were either conjectured or extend conjectures by Roland Bacher [J. Théorie Nombres Bordeaux 14 (2002), 19-41].
Comment by the author: It is much easier to prove Theorem 4 by appealing to (the more general) Proposition 1 in the author's paper "Advanced Determinant Calculus," Séminaire Lotharingien Combin. 42 ("The Andrews Festschrift") (1999), Article B42q, 67 pp.
